Systems and methods may provide for an energy harvester to power a mobile device. The energy harvester may include an energy harvesting portion to generate electrical power. At least one sensor may measure an environmental condition relating to generation of electrical power by the energy harvesting portion. A controller may generate a signal based on the measured environmental condition by the at least one sensor to the mobile device. Alternatively the signals from the at least one sensor are place in a memory on the energy harvester. In one example, the controller determines the power generated by the energy harvester and the controller signal includes this power information.

In an embodiment, a system includes controller circuitry to initiate a plurality of energy transfer cycles. Each energy transfer cycle includes an input time period during which corresponding input energy is received by a power train, and an output time period during which corresponding output energy is output from the power train. The system also includes energy detection logic to provide, upon completion of each energy transfer cycle, a corresponding indication of corresponding residual energy retained by the power train. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Systems and methods may provide for a transient response apparatus that includes a single stage conversion module having a power input, a power output, and a control input, and a compensation module including a feedback input. The compensation module may be coupled to the power input, the power output and the control input of the single stage conversion module. Additionally, a feedback module may be coupled to the power output of the single stage conversion module and the feedback input of the compensation module. In one example, the feedback module includes a loop controller having a plurality of programmable inputs and an error output, and a modulus unit coupled to the error output of the loop controller and the feedback input of the compensation module.

The disclosure generally relates to methods, system and apparatus to wirelessly charge a mobile device using one of conventional or alternative power sources. In an exemplary embodiment, the disclosure provides a method and apparatus to detect power source as a function of its power profile linearity. Once determination is made as to whether the incoming power is harvested from natural resources or is provided from conventional AC/DC adapter/DC source, the incoming power is conditioned and impedance-matched to wirelessly energize an external load. The external load may be a device configured for wireless charging.
